26. I have much to say about you and to judge. But he who sent me is true. And what I have heard from him, this I speak within the world."
27. And they did not realize that he was calling God his Father.
28. And so Jesus said to them: "When you will have lifted up the Son of man, then you shall realize that I am, and that I do nothing of myself, but just as the Father has taught me, so do I speak.
29. And he who sent me is with me, and he has not abandoned me alone. For I always do what is pleasing to him."
30. As he was speaking these things, many believed in him.
31. Therefore, Jesus said to those Jews who believed in him: "If you will abide in my word, you will truly be my disciples.
32. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free."
33. They answered him: "We are the offspring of Abraham, and we have never been a slave to anyone. How can you say, 'You shall be set free?' "
34. Jesus answered them: "Amen, amen, I say to you, that everyone who commits sin is a slave of sin.
35. Now the slave does not abide in the house for eternity. Yet the Son does abide in eternity.
